under dusty, dirty conditions. See 'qO

CHANGE ENGINE OIL" in the Mainte-

nance section of this manual,

filler cap

oil cap

ADD GASOLINE

• Fill fuel tank to bottom of tank fillerneck.

Do not overfill. Use fresh, clean, regular

unleaded gasoline with a minimum of

87 octane. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Purchase fuel in quantities that can be

used within 30 days to assure fuel fresh-

ness.

_, CAUTION: Wipe off any spilled oil or

fuel. Do not store, spill or use gasoline

near an open flame.

_, CAUTION: Alcohol blended fuels

(called gasohol or using ethanol or metha-

nol) can attract moisture which leads to

separation and formation of acids during

storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel

system of an engine while in storage. To

avoid engine problems, the fuel system

should be emptied before storage of 30

days or longer. Empty the gas tank, start

the engine and let it run until the fuel lines

and carburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel

next season. See Storage Instructions for

additional information. Never use engine

or carburetor cleaner products in the fuel

tank or permanentdamage may occur.

TO STOP ENGINE

° To stop engine, release operator pres-

ence controlbar.

TO START ENGINE

NOTE: Due to protectivecoatingson the

engine, a small amount of smoke may be

present during the initial use of the product

and should be considered normal.

NOTE: Your engine is equipped with an

automatic choke system. No priming or

chokingis required before starting.

• To start engine, hold operator presence

control bar down to the handle and pull

starter handle quickly. Do not allow

............starter rope to Snap back. ............

MOWING TIPS

_, CAUTION: Do not use de-thatcher

blade attachments onyour mower. Such

attachmentsare hazardous, witIdamage

your mower and couldvoid your warranty.

• Under certainconditions,suchas very

tall grass, it may be necessaryto raise

the heightofcut toreduce pushingeffort

and to keep from ovedoadfngthe engine

and leaving clumpsofgrass clippings.

It may also be necessary to reduce

ground speed and/or runthe lawn

mower overthe area a secondtime.

• For extremely heavy cutting,reducethe

width ofcut by ovedappingpreviously

cut path and mow slowly.

• For better grass bagging and most cut-

ting conditions, the engine speed should

be set in the FAST position.

• Pores in cloth grass catchers can

become filled with dirt and dust with use

and catchers will collect less grass. To

prevent this, regularly hose catcher off

with water and let dry before using.

• Keep top of engine around starter clear

and clean of grass clippings and chaff.

This will help engine air flow and extend

engine life.

MULCHING MOWING TIPS

IMPORTANT: For bestperformance,

keep mower housing free of built-up

grass and trash. See "CLEANING" in the

Maintenance sectfon of this manual.

• The special mulching blade will recut

the grass clippings many times and

reduce them fnsize so that as they fall

onto the lawn they will disperse into

the grass and not be noticed. Also, the

mulched grass wiUbiodegrade quickly to

provide nutrfents for the lawn. Always

mulch with your highest engine (blade)

speed as this will provide the best recur-

......ting action of the blades.

• Avoid cutting your lawn when it is wet.

Wet grass tends to form clumps and

interferes with the mulching action. The

best tfme to mow your lawn is the early

afternoon. At this tfme the grass has

dried, yet the newly cut area willnot be

exposed to direct sunlight.

• For best results, adjust the lawn mower

Cuttingheight so that the lawn mower

cuts off only the top one-third of the

grass blades. Ifthe lawn is overgrown

it wiltbe necessary to raise the height of

cut to reduce pushfng effort and to keep

from overloading the engine and leaving

clumpsof mulched grass. For extremely

heavy grass, reduce your width of cut

by overlapping previously cut path and

mow slowly.

MAX1/3

• Certain types of grass and grass

conditionsmay require that an area be

mulched a second time to completely

hide the clippings. When doing a sec-

ond cut, mow across (perpendicular) to

the first cut path.

• Change your cutting pattern from week

to week. Mow north to south one week

then change to east to west the next

week. This will help prevent matting

and graining of the lawn.

FUEL SYSTEM

IMPORTANT: It isimportant to prevent

gum deposits from forming in essential

fuel system parts such as carburetor, fuel

filter, fuel hose, or tank during storage.

Alcohol blended fuels (called gasohol or

using ethanol or methanol) can attract

moisture which leadsto separation and

formation of acids during storage. Acidic

gas can damage the fuel system of an

engine while in storage.

• Empty the fuel tank by starting the en-

gine and letting it run until the fuel lines

and carburetor are empty,

• Never use engine or carburetor cleaner

productsin the fue! tank or permanent

damage may occur,

• Use fresh fuel next season.

NOTE: Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable

alternative in minimizing the formation of

fuel gum deposits during storage, Add

stabilizer to gasoline in fuel tank or stor-

age container. Always follow the mix ratio

found on stabilizer container. Run engine

at least 10 minutes after adding stabilizer

to allow the stabilizer to reach the car-

buretor. Do notempty the gas tank and

carburetor if using fuel stabilizer.

ENGINE OIL

Drain ofl(withengine warm) and replace

with clean engine oil. (See "ENGINE" in

the Maintenance section of this manual).

CYLINDER

1, Remove spark plug.

2. Pour one ounce (29 ml) of oil through

spark plug hole into cylinder.

3. Pull starter handle slowly afew times to

distribute oil.

4. Replace with new spark plug.

OTHER

• Do not store gasoline from one season

to another.

• Replace your gasoline can ifyourcan

starts to rust, Rust and/or dirt in your

gasoline will cause problems.

* If possible, store your unit indoorsand

cover it to protect itfrom dust and dirt.

° Cover your unit with a suitable protec-

tive cover that does not retain moisture.

Do not use plastic. Plastic cannot

breathe, which allows condensation to

form and will cause your unit to rust.

IMPORTANT: Never cover mower while

engine and exhaust areas are still warm.

_IbCAUTION: Never store the lawn mower

with gasoline in the tank insidea building

where fumes may reach an open flame

or spark. Allow the engineto cool before
